HLA Matching for Cord Blood Units

Presented Thursday, December 12, 2019

Human Leukocyte Antigens (HLA) matching for Cord Blood Units (CBU) is much more complex than blood typing. This webcast covers how to find the best match and what information is needed to select the most optimal CBU based on HLA profiles.  Josefine Teeler, Team Lead - Transplant Center Services for Matchis Foundation provides information on how matchgrade is determined for CBUs and the guidelines for selection.

Josefine also discusses the differences between n/6, n/8, and n/10 matchgrade, and attendees also learn about minimal matchgrade and (permissive) mismatches. By choosing the best CBU for a patient not only HLA is considered. She also also briefly reviews the balance between matchgrade, cell dose, and diagnosis of the patient.


Register to learn about:

  • CBU selection based on HLA profiles and matchgrade
  • How matchgrade is determined
  • The minimal matchgrade and how it is influenced by cell dose and/or diagnosis 
  • Global guidelines
  • Characteristics and types of information regarding the HLA profiles that influence the final CBU selection
